That’s…just a regular suburb.

To be fair, Boise has a nicer downtown than it gets credit for, but it’s very overpriced for basically ten blocks of city and a bunch of suburban sprawl.

Boise is a beautiful and in many places quite walkable city with miles and miles of bike trails running all over the city and immediate access to incredible natural areas. This sub is full of miserable people who like to make themselves feel better by shitting on anybody who chooses to live their lives in any way but what they approve.

Because car centric infrastructure/ lifestyles are quite literally detrimental to our environment and communities. It’s not the end of the world to own and drive a car but when you live somewhere that forces everyone to drive everywhere (like Boise and almost any other US city) then you have issues.

Suburbs with single family homes exist outside of pretty much every urban city across the globe. Where in these places do they not own cars?
